  • Abstract
    This report presents the scintillation properties and temperature dependent neutron and gamma responses of Cs2LiLaBr6 elpasolite crystals with 0.5, 2, and 3.5% Ce doping. Cs2LiLaBr6 has excellent scintillation light output proportionality, high light output, and good energy resolution. It also shows good light output temperature stability. Pulse shape differences between neutron and gamma excited pulses are analyzed as a function of temperature. Neutron-gamma pulse shape discrimination is possible in a wide temperature range from -10°C up to at least 140 °C.
